We had lunch at Shakespeare and it was a pleasant experience. The service was welcoming and the atmosphere really nice, perfect for a relaxed break in the city. The food was good – maybe not unforgettable – but definitely enjoyable. Overall, a solid place to stop for lunch in Edinburgh (and yes, we even joked about it being the Scottish cousin of Britney …)
